Hello everyone, and thank you for sharing your thoughts on this. Special thanks to Raika and H0t for staying positive and for taking the time to understand what the suggestion is actually about and explain their thoughts in depth. I appreciate everyone who took the time to explain their position and keep the discussion constructive. I don't have much to add regarding the suggestion itself, since I believe the main idea is already explained in the original post and has also been discussed by some of the people who voted +1. However, I do want to clarify a few things because I feel that some of the replies are focusing on only one part of the suggestion or misunderstanding what I meant. First, regarding the title: Ban Baton Pass - Boss Rework - Make Battles Fun The dashes are there intentionally to separate the different steps and ideas of the suggestion. When planning and organizing something, especially in a professional environment, things are normally separated into steps: Step 1: Ban Baton Pass from the current/old Boss system. Step 2: Rework the Boss system and introduce a new approach. Step 3: Make Boss Battles more fun and interesting as a result. The title is simply a short way of showing the process and the intended outcome. The most important part is obviously the final result: making Boss Battles more fun, while the first two parts describe how that could be achieved. I wanted to keep the title simple and make it immediately clear what the suggestion is about. I think that is much more appropriate than trying to explain the entire idea in the title. That is also why I don't understand some of the reactions focusing only on "Ban Baton Pass". I am not suggesting that Baton Pass should simply be removed from the current Boss system while everything else stays the same. I specifically suggested the Baton Pass ban as part of a larger Boss rework. I also want to clarify my sentence: This was apparently interpreted as me saying that I don't know what the rework should be and that the developers should come up with the idea for me. That is not what I meant. I was specifically talking about the technical implementation. I am a player, not a game developer. I don't know how PRO is programmed internally, how it's Boss system is structured, or what would be technically possible and how those mechanics could actually be implemented into the game. I can suggest the gameplay direction and what kind of experience I think would be better, but the programming and implementation are obviously something the staff team would need to determine. There is a difference between saying “I don't know how to technically implement this” and saying “I don't know what the rework should be.” I am completely fine with people disagreeing with the idea. That is the purpose of a suggestion thread. What I don't think is helpful is responding to a different version of the suggestion than the one that was actually written. This is not the first time a Boss rework has been suggested. There have been different suggestions and approaches in the past, so I don't think proposing changes to an existing system should be treated as something personal or unreasonable. Regarding players who have already invested a lot of time and Pokedollars into building Boss teams, I understand why they may be concerned about changing a system they have invested in. However, that investment was still a choice based on the current system. Players also had the option of hunting those Pokemon themselves and obtaining them as their own OT instead of buying them from other players. And even with a Boss rework, those Pokemon do not suddenly become useless. They are still Pokemon that can be used for PvP, other PvE content, future content, or simply kept as part of someone's collection. They do not disappear just because the Boss system changes. Regarding the income argument, I also understand that Bosses are an important source of Pokedollars for many players. I am not suggesting that this economic role should simply disappear. At the same time, I think it is important to separate the economic value of the current system from whether the Boss system itself could be improved. Some players may naturally be more concerned about a change because they rely on the current Boss system for income. I can understand that. However, that should not automatically mean that the system cannot be changed or improved if there is a reasonable argument that the gameplay could be better. I cannot know the personal reasons behind every -1, and I don't want to make assumptions. What I want to point out is that some of the responses in this thread have been unnecessarily hostile or personal. Disagreeing with a game suggestion is completely normal, but insults and personal attacks do not really contribute to the discussion. Finally, I am not claiming that my suggestion is perfect. I am a human, and I can make mistakes, whether they are grammatical or spelling-related, or simply because I did not phrase an idea exactly the way I had it in my head. That is normal. I always try to do some research and think about the possible consequences before making a suggestion. The purpose of a suggestion thread is to discuss ideas, improve them, and see whether something could work better for the game. Thanks again to everyone who contributed constructively. Even disagreement is useful when we can discuss the actual ideas behind it. Kind Regards, Lugario

Hello, I’d like to suggest an idea to improve the trade zone. Since players come from various regions around the world, it can sometimes be difficult to complete trades due to time zone differences. My idea is that, once an auction ends, the players involved would specify how the transaction should take place—whether it involves trading Pokémon, coins, or coin capsules—and the trade would then be carried out automatically. I believe this would make things much easier for everyone and improve the overall player experience.

Thanks for the clarification. I ended up checking the wiki rather than relying on the old spawn lists, and that's probably the safest way to keep track of what is actually available since PRO's roster and spawn locations can change over time. The lack of an ETA for specific Pokémon also makes sense — I'd rather see them added properly than have a rushed release just to fill out the dex. Dragapult and Baxcalibur would definitely be fun additions whenever they do make it in, though. For anyone finding this old thread later, I'd use the current wiki/spawn information as the reference rather than assuming the Pokémon list in older forum posts is still accurate.

Hello @Flowertea. We’re looking into your refund request. First, can you tell me approximately when you made the purchase and how it happened?

Respectfully, if "Ban Baton Pass" is the FIRST thing in the title of the thread, literally mentioned before Boss Rework and Make Battles Fun but that's not the suggestion, then the thread creator ideas and priorities are quite confused. It's also quite LITERALLY the only tangible solution he gave in this entire thread, all he did was suggest an idea that's highly difficult to implement, be vague about it by mentioning things everyone already knows including the devs, don't give any actual suggestion on how that should even work by sneaking in the convenient "that is for you to figure it out", then come up with his only personal SOLUTION which is the one you say it's not being suggested when in fact it's the only actual implementation it's being suggested here, which is to ban baton pass. In short words -1 from me cause I can read the entire thread and see where the priority lies.

bump!
